<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In case you have not run into working with a regional transportation center (or any type of center) on their data management plan for a project which included multiple universities.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Instructions for the DMP<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Grantee must create a supplementary document labeled “Data Management Plan” (DMP) that describes its strategy for processing and archiving Digital Data Sets resulting from DOT-funded scientific research in a repository that enables
and allows for public access and sharing. The DMP must be submitted to the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Research and Technology (OST-R) Grant Manager for review and approval. DMPs that do not meet the minimum requirements,
provided below, will be rejected.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• A high-level description of the types of data that the Center anticipates gathering in the course of conducting research activities, including whether the data should be preserved for long -term access;
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">•A proposed outline of the standards and machine-readable formats that will be used for the entire scope of research activities;
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">•A description of any data access policies that govern (and prevent) the disclosure of identities, confidential business information, national security information, etc., and whether public use files may be generated
from the data;<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• A general discussion of policies for re-use and re-distribution of research data; and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">• A high-level description of how, when, and where the Center plans to archive, preserve, and deposit the research data.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The DMPTool has a DOT template, but nothing for transportation center grants. This DMP I was working on actually looked like it was for the lead center, but the researcher I was working with found a DOT DMP created with the DMPTool <span style="color:#1F497D"><a href="https://dmptool.org/plans/25346.pdf"><span style="color:blue">https://dmptool.org/plans/25346.pdf</span></a>.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Turns out this DMP is written from a Centers viewpoint and addressing what each group and researcher must follow. The grant was funded.<o:p></o:p></p>
